Planners To Review 10th Street Zoning

November 25, 1986

ST. CLOUD — The city's planning board is scheduled to review a rezoning proposal tonight that supporters say could restore some of the commercial flavor on 10th Street between Missouri and Massachusetts avenues.

Last month the board voted to hold a public hearing on a plan to allow owners of single-family houses and duplexes on 10th Street to convert their buildings to professional offices, neighborhood stores and restaurants.

The proposed rezoning would be restricted to property historically used as commercial sites when 10th Street was the city's main business corridor. Traffic has been rerouted to the four-laned 13th Street, also called U.S. Highway 192-441.

However, tonight's discussion of the proposal may be postponed until next month because of expected absences, said city planner Jay Marlles. At least two members may not be present at the workshop because of holiday conflicts, he said.

Also at tonight's meeting, the board is scheduled to continue its review for updating the city's comprehensive plan. That project must be completed by 1989. The workshop starts at 7:30 p.m. in the city hall auditorium on New York Avenue.
